Original Note:
Presidential immunity is not a new concept. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presidential_immunity_in_the_United_States The Supreme Court's ruling limits the immunity, stating that it is not absolute and only applies to official acts. This is in line with the previous rulings that also limited presidential immunity to the official duties. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nixon_v._Fitzgerald#cite_note-5
